Glide Transformations
This is a Glide image transformation library for Android that provides a collection of image processing filters and shapes. It functions as a suite of hardware-accelerated tools for image cropping, artistic filtering, and transformation pipeline management.
The project distinguishes itself through an image filter pipeline that allows for sequential transformation chaining, enabling multiple visual effects and color modifications to be applied in a single pass. It utilizes GPU acceleration to implement artistic effects such as pixelation, sketching, and blur.
The library covers a broad range of image manipulation capabilities, including dynamic image masking for circles and rounded corners, color tone adjustments for grayscale and sepia effects, and custom shape cropping with optional border configurations.
Features
- Bitmap Transformation Pipelines - Implements a transformation pipeline that plugs into the image loading lifecycle to modify bitmaps before display.
- Image Processing Pipelines - Implements a sequential processing pipeline that chains multiple visual effects and color modifications in a single pass.
- Filter Chaining - Processes images through a series of ordered filters and crops to apply multiple visual effects in a single pass.
- GPU Accelerated Image Operators - Provides hardware-accelerated artistic filters such as toon, sepia, sketch, and pixelation.
- Filter Acceleration - Utilizes hardware acceleration to apply complex artistic effects like pixelation and toon filters.
- Color Matrix Transformations - Uses mathematical matrix transformations on RGBA values to achieve grayscale and sepia effects.
- Geometric Shape Cropping - Trims images into specific shapes such as circles, squares, or rounded corners with optional border configurations.
